Iowa Governor Salary Proposal Sparks Legislative Debate
Iowa Democrats attack Governor Branstad for proposing a $10,000 pay raise for future governors. The plan would raise salaries for statewide officials and judges, with no increase for Branstad’s current pay, and legislators largely oppose the measure. The proposal also outlines raises for the attorney general and other offices effective 2014 and 2015.
